That day, he was on his way to find Su Yiting with two tickets to a fan meeting with a famous celebrity.

That celebrity was signed to Huan Ying Entertainment, and Su Yiting had been his fan for a long time already. She had come to him multiple times, asking him to help her figure out a way to meet the man. Alas, the celebrity had been busy shooting movies overseas. However, yesterday, the celebrity had come back to the country. That morning, Lu Qiaochen heard that the celebrity was going to have a fan meeting that afternoon as Beijing, so he went to his father’s company to ask for two VIP tickets. Ignoring the fact that he was skipping school, he came to see Su Yiting, but to his surprise, the girl was not in the classroom.

Lu Qiaochen knew that Su Yiting wouldn’t return home during afternoon break. He assumed that she had gone to the toilet, so he waited for her at the classroom entrance. He waited for ten minutes, but there was still no sign of Su Yiting. In the end, it was the girl who sat next to Su Yiting in class who approached him to tell him that Su Yiting was having a date at the back garden.

The few simple words stunned him for quite a long time. It took him a while to understand what he had been told. His lips tensed, and after thanking Su Yiting’s friend, he rushed toward the back garden.

As mentioned by her friend, Su Yiting was talking and laughing with a fair and delicate-looking young man surrounded by the blooming flowers.

The two of them stood up since the bell was about to ring. Lu Qiaochen didn’t have time to even hide, so the three of them ran into each other just like that.

When Su Yiting saw Lu Qiaochen, she was overjoyed. She bounced to his side like she usually would and greeted him happily. “Brother Qiaochen, how did you know I was here?”

Lu Qiaochen stared at Su Yiting’s smiling face for a while, but he didn’t say anything as his gaze slowly wandered to the young man who was standing not far away. When Liang Yang met Lu Qiaochen’s eyes, he also greeted him politely. “Senior Lu, nice to meet you. I’m Liang Yang, Xiao Yi’s boyfriend.”

Lu Qiaochen still didn’t say anything. His gaze lingered on Liang Yang’s face for another two seconds before turning back to Su Yiting. When he spoke, his tone sounded surprisingly casual. “When did this start? Why didn’t you tell me?”

“Just two days ago…” Su Yiting’s cheeks burned. She lowered her head and quickly changed the subject. “By the way, Brother Qiaochen, why are you here? Is it because you have something to tell me?”

“Yeah.” Lu Qiaochen passed the tickets to Su Yiting.

Su Yiting accepted them, and when she saw the details printed on them, she gasped with pleasant surprise. “Brother Qiaochen, you’re the best…”

Before Su Yiting could finish, Lu Qiaochen turned to leave.

Su Yiting stopped mid-sentence. Looking at Lu Qiaochen’s back, she pouted and thought to herself, Brother Qiaochen sure is acting very weirdly today…

However, this question stayed in her mind for less than a minute before it was replaced by the shrill sound of the school bell. She jumped with a start, and after an ‘unwilling’ parting from Liang Yang, she returned to class.

Starting from that day, Lu Qiaochen, who normally came to see Su Yiting every two or three days, disappeared for more than half a month.

Su Yiting, who was lost in the sweetness of first love, didn’t even realize that he was gone until her friend asked, “How come I haven’t seen your Brother Qiaochen recently?”

For some reason, the image of Lu Qiaochen turning to leave after giving her the VIP tickets cropped up in her mind.
